Modesto Sister Cities International

Opera Modesto is now in the initial stages of making a movie of the world premiere youth opera, THE RACE, An Aesop's Fables Mash Up. It was originally commissi...oned by Opera Modesto from composer Deborah Kavasch (CSU Stanislaus) and librettist Linda Bunney-Sarhad for performance by the 2020 Summer Opera Institute. World events have conspired to make a live performance impossible...so...we will make a high quality movie, to be filmed on location in the beautiful Central Valley; in orchards, vineyards, fields, by the river, and more fun places! THE RACE will feature 19 current and past young artists from the SOI!

Wishing our friends in Laval & Mayenne, France a happy, healthy, safe & jovial Bastille Day 2020. With fond memories from your friends & fellow adventurers in life. We look forward to our next projects, exchanges & visits again soon.,, We are flying the USA, Californian & French flags but no wind to set them free today.
